          Issue ID: 14441
           Summary: Strange error with string ctor
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P1
         Component: DMD

          Reporter: temtaime gmail.com

auto s = string(`foo`);

Error: function expected before (), not string of type string

It should be accepted because all built-in types has a ctor.

For example auto a = int(10); works
